    Sometime the devil makes you do it. Whether looking for a fun bar where you can get beer and margaritas or the monthly taco special with queso and guac. I always enjoy Torchys. Booths and a separate bar are at this location. Bar staff is a bit friendlier than the regular food section.

    Green Chile Queso & Chips
    Yvonne V.

    Casual taco chain in the Woodlands located in a strip mall. Quick, friendly service. Download app for reward points. Happy hour $1 off tacos from 3pm-6pm. I would describe the food as a hipsters take on Mexican food. Ordering a taco "trashy style" replaces the lettuce with their queso. This is a good place if you are looking for a quick bite. Recommend the queso and carnitas taco.

    Mofaux (Up) & Fried Avocado (Down)
    Oz E.

    Good tacos, friendly staff, comfortable interior. The woman at the counter was very helpful in explaining to us the menu and offering recommendations. She took our order quickly and efficiently. The food came out fast, and it was delicious. The four tacos and guacamole we ordered were all great. Honestly, the only comment I can make is that the guacamole proved to be more spicy than our tacos (despite having the hottest sauce, the tacos packed very light heat if any - might have been a fluke in our order). Definitely a place worth checking out (or coming back to)!

    Trailer Park Hillbilly Style in a bowl
    Julie Lynn B.

    My daughter ordered Torchy's via Door Dash a few days ago. She ordered a burrito, which was a decent size and she said it was pretty good, I ordered the Trailer Park Hillbilly style off the "secret menu". The price ended up being $8.20 because I added crispy potatoes. What I got didn't even fill the bowl. There was 3/4 of a chicken strip, maybe 2 tator tot style potatoes and very little else. Very disappointed. Please see photos

    Baja shrimp taco

    Torchy's Tacos is signature Texas fare, so when in Texas, we had to give them a try. We came here for brunch. They had lots of scrumptious tacos on the menu, but I was in the mood for a light meal, so I ordered only one taco (though I wish I was hungrier for more). One taco was plenty satisfying for me. They also have breakfast tacos which come with a hearty serving of eggs in each. I ordered the Baja shrimp tacos (fried shrimp, cabbage slaw, pickled jalapeños and onions, cotija cheese, and cilantro). The cashier was super helpful with explaining the menu- you get to choose the tortilla (flour or corn) and can switch up the sauces and/or get them on the side. The Baja shrimp tacos came with a "chipotle sauce" on the side (actually chipotle ranch). I chose the flour tortilla and swapped out the chipotle sauce for avocado sauce and tomatillo. I also got to try the roja and chipotle ranch. My favorites were the avocado sauce followed by the roja. They also have extra lime wedges at the drink station, a must-have for my tacos. Our orders were brought out quickly. The taco was good overall, but I do prefer a crunchy, heartier batter on the fried shrimp; the batter on the Baja shrimp tacos was very light and delicate. After ordering, we saw everyone else snacking on chips and queso - it looked so tasty, we just had to have some! Do yourself a favor and order the chips and queso - you won't regret it! Free refill on chips. Pro tip: squeeze lime on the chips. Overall, Torchy's Tacos is a solid taco chain. Prices were reasonable, service was welcoming, and I would come back for more.

    Brushfire, Jamaican Jerk Chicken was great! Highly recommend the Hillbilly Queso too! It contains chorizo!! It's on the spicy side though!

This time cashier was almost nonverbal. She stared at me until I ordered then only said the total charge. That was it. The campenchano taco was bland. I went to get some green sauce (red was also available), grilled onions and lime. That got it to somewhat flavorful but not fresh tasting. Food 3.5 out of 5. Service less than 1. I would only go if I was by myself.

For anyone that grew up…read moreor previously lived in SoCal or Baja Mexico, this is a much provided relief from the usual tex-mex cuisine in the Houston area. I chose 3 specialty tacos, the Mar Y Tierra, Baja Shrimp and the Ensenada. I was hoping to find Baja style tacos as great as the ones I used to eat regularly in San Diego. So does this place live up to the hype? Mar y Tierra - the first taco I tried and it was really great. Very colorful as far as presentation. Lots of steak chunks and I loved the thickness of the homemade corn tortilla. 5/5 Baja Shrimp - this was good as well, but pretty standard and not on the same level as the other two. 3/5 Ensenada - comes with 2 tortillas to accommodate the large piece of fried fish, really good taco as well. Maybe breading was slightly on the salty side. Seemed to be beer-battered. 4/5 I also added a fountain drink. During my visit their sodas were down 2 options, no coke and no iced tea. They did have horchata and jamaica flavored drinks on their fountain machine, so I wasn't too upset about the lack of iced tea. I ended up getting the Jamaica drink. The service here was not the best, especially the unfriendly cashier, but aside from all that, I came for the food, not to make friends. You order at the counter, find a seat, get some sauces and garnishes from the salsa bar (mainly for take out customers), and they will bring the food out to you. The ambiance is okay. They have an end cap in the shopping center so the space has plenty of natural light. Decor is black, white and then colorful with a couple of blue and red accent walls. Chair cusions are also colorful, along with colorful flowers at each table and colorful art work. They also have an Instagram worthy wall for those interested. Their chairs and tables are lacquered and a little worn. Not sure if they're supposed to be like that or not. They do have 6 beers on tap and have 4 different bottled beers too...so they really are true to their name; however, I didn't order any.

The place is small so to-go is good and they have lots of to-go family meal options too. The staff was good but the cashier was a bit slow at taking orders with some customers.

Of you ever had pazole it tastes like your chicken in drenched in the broth, yum! - queso blanco - not impressed but it was ok. Chips are delicious so recommend some to-go or with salsa. - Mexican coke - the real stuff too! They have a fridge of salsas to grab for your table. I liked them all so it's your preference. The tacos are big portions why they gave me two tortillas. I basically made two tacos out of one order. Awesome deal for $3.25 a taco! I want to try carne asado which I feel will be worth the $1 up-charge. And try the nopales to see how they make theirs. Only complaint I have is the menu. You can't see it until you are close in line. I want a menu I can view while in line waiting. This way the line runs faster. Lastly the menu transitions are distracting when trying to read the menu. I say turn off the transitions, they are more frustrating than a cool feature. I will be back.

I'd wanted to try La Cocina for a while for that reason and those plans finally came to fruition. You walk up to a counter that has all the ingredients for taco making right in front of you. The guy asks you how many you are going to want, and if you want flour or corn, so he can let them know in the back to make your tortillas fresh. About 2 minutes later, out came our tortillas. I ordered 3: one with eggs and bacon, one with some kind of egg and sausage combo and one non-breakfast taco with fajita meat. The fajita taco was just okay, but the breakfast tacos had me thinking about them for hours after the fact. They aren't very big, so if you're a growing boy like me, I'd aim for 4-5 of them. The guy behind the counter tried to guide us into his suggestion of 2 each, but I jumped in and said make it 3 for me. If I could go back in time, I would have done 4 and made them all the breakfast variety. Both breakfast tacos were straight bangers from another dimension. All the sauces were great and none were too spicy. I might have to return to this place sooner rather than later because I really did think about it the rest of the day. I love you, La Cocina.
